Medications used to treat bronchial asthma can be categorized into two main groups. One category is reliever drugs and the other is controller drugs. Relievers are mainly used in acute attacks of bronchial asthma, like the commonly used albuterol sulfate, cobicistat, theophylline extended-release tablets, medrol. Controlling medications are mainly used in chronic persistent asthma, like the commonly used Symbicort, Sulpiride, and oral montelukast sodium tablets. There are also anti-allergic medications, such as IgG monoclonal antibodies and injectable omalizumab, which are mainly used when asthma is chronic and stable.
